You have always heard that fatty foods are not the healthiest choice for you and that is still true.  Though we have talked about healthy fats and their benefits. 

Now some studies are showing that unsaturated fats found in olive oil, avocados, nuts, etc can play a role in telling your body to stop eating.

This type of research is pretty interesting because it is something that has not been uncovered before.  Time will tell if this research can be duplicated or not. 

Though if this type of research can be duplicated then losing weight fast will never be easier.  To summarize the study they found in mice that there is metabolic inflammation when mice consume too much food.  The result is cellular dysfunction and a messed up metabolism.

A recent study was completed on the cost of Bariatric surgery in relation to health costs and the ability to lose weight fast.

The study found that this lose weight fast surgery can pay for itself in a few years by helping to reduce insurance claims from other medical conditions obese people develop. 

Monthly medical costs for patients who had bariatric surgery  were as much as $900 lower than those who didn't have lose weight fast operation. 

Bariatric surgeries costs range from $17,000-$26,000.

Now I may be mistaken, but changing your eating habits and increasing your activity to lose weight fast also decreases your monthly medical costs and it doesn't cost anywhere near $20, 000.

It has been proven that the percentage with diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, etc all decrease when the weight comes off.

It may take a few more months to lose weight fast, but you will save $20,000 and your chance of dying from eating right and increasing your activity is essentiallly zilch.  The lose weight fast surgery called Bariatric can't say that.

It is obvious to most people that our health is affected by what we eat; now, however, scientists have shown that it is also a matter of how often we eat.
